82 gs850 idle issues

I’ve got a 82 gs850 that doesn’t want to idle. I’ve cleaned the carbs in a ultrasonic tank, installed rebuild kits, replaced the engine intake boots, and went up 2 sizes on the main and pilot jets to compensate for pod filters and open exhaust. When it does run the choke has to be on and when I crack the throttle it dies. Everything points to running lean but I’ve gone up to 4 turns out on the idle/air screws and it doesn’t make a difference. Figured I’d get some opinions before I buy more jets. thanks 7D2A6DDC-173A-42D9-81D2-67D398636786.jpegA1C80184-8483-42A6-B494-64EA729AD8F4.jpeg
 
float levels too low? should be a few mms below the bowl top.
i only measure with gas in the carb using a clear tube to be sure theyre not hanging up on anything (common issue if u have bent floats)

static/dynamic timing good?
